Israeli, Saudi Arabia bulldozing Islam

By Kevin Barrett,

Islam is the world's
fastest-growing religion. It is also the West's designated post-Cold War
enemy - the target of a genocidal war launched by the 9/11 false-flag
operation.

The War on Islam has killed millions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia,
Sudan, Pakistan, and elsewhere. Like the Cold War, the War on Islam is a
“low-intensity conflict” fought in various hot spots around the world.

And like the Cold War, the War on Islam was built to last. As Bush,
Cheney, and Rumsfeld never tired of reminding us, the War on Islam
(which they ludicrously term a “war on terror”) will “not end in our
lifetime.” John McCain called it a “100-years war,” which apparently
means it will end on September 11th, 2101.
One wonders what kind of iconic event could happen then, symbolizing
the end of the 100 years of anti-Islam war that neatly bracketed the
21st century. My best guess: Space aliens, presumably fake ones, will
invade earth, forcing all of humanity to unite behind their New World
Order overlords. This forecast, of course, assumes that Muslims will not
manage to prematurely end the War on Islam and help redirect humanity
toward more positive goals.

Right now, the two biggest “hot spots” of the anti-Muslim genocide are in Palestine and Myanmar.

In Israel, the ultra-extremist right wing grows stronger every year.
Just two days ago, the lunatic Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu,
allied his party with the even nuttier followers of "the Jewish Hitler,"
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman.

Lieberman's goal is “population transfer” - a euphemism for a
speedy, rather than slow-motion, genocide. Lieberman wants all Arabs,
whom he apparently views as subhumans, out of the occupied Palestinian
territories... exactly like Hitler wanted all Jews out of German
territory. Since the Palestinians will not leave willingly, having
learned their lesson in 1948, Lieberman and his goons are going to have
to kill them.

In the delusional minds of right-wing Israelis, the mass murder and
expulsion of millions more Palestinians could be accomplished during the
“fog of war,” in the event of a regional conflagration. That's why
Israeli extremists, led by Netanyahu, are so eager to attack Iran.
(Another benefit of a major Mideast war, from Netanyahu's perspective,
is that it would maintain the US in its post-9/11 state of emergency,
and thereby prevent the truth of 9/11 from coming to light.)

And, of course, big wars make big money for the Israelis and their big bankster backers.

What is holding them back? Even without nuclear weapons,
Iran has a formidable capacity to retaliate against any Israeli
aggression. Using missiles armed only with conventional warheads, Iran
could level large sections of Israeli cities, and if necessary even
destroy the Dimona nuclear facility, poisoning all of Israel and much of
its surroundings. And let's not get started about targeting US bases in
Iraq, and shutting down the Persian Gulf.

Sane Americans, and sane Israelis, agree that war with Iran is off the table.

Meanwhile, the Israelis are bulldozing the West Bank, especially
Jerusalem. They are destroying Palestinian homes and turning the Arab
inhabitants of Jerusalem into homeless refugees. And they are
undermining the foundations of Islam's greatest architectural monument,
the Masjid al-Aqsa, with “archeological digs” - while above ground,
Zionist storm troopers regularly blitzkrieg the mosque and brutalize
worshipers.

In Myanmar, another focal point of the anti-Muslim genocide, a whole
people is being destroyed, without interference from the
self-proclaimed “human rights advocates” of the West. Muslim houses,
neighborhoods, even whole towns are being burned to the ground.

If the people being exterminated in Myanmar were Jews rather than
Muslims, Israel would have nuked Naypyidaw several times by now.

Apparently Pakistan, which has nuclear weapons capable of reaching
Myanmar, is not as dedicated to stopping anti-Muslim genocide as Israel
would be dedicated to stopping anti-Jewish genocide. Perhaps that is a
good thing.

On the other hand, if Pakistan announced that it is targeting
Naypyidaw and moving to a higher level of alert, maybe the world would
take notice and stop the killing.

As the anti-Muslim genocide rages on all over the world, the Saudis,
the “custodians” of Mecca and Medina, are making their contribution to
bulldozing Islam. They are on the brink of destroying several of the
world's oldest mosques, including those of the caliphs Abu Bakr and
Umar, as well as the Masjid Ghamama, the site of the first Eid Prayer.

As the London Independent reports:

“Heritage campaigners and many locals have looked on aghast as the
historic sections of Mecca and Medina have been bulldozed to make way
for gleaming shopping malls, luxury hotels and enormous skyscrapers. The
Washington-based Gulf Institute estimates that 95 per cent of the
1,000-year-old buildings in the two cities have been destroyed in the
past 20 years.”

Apparently, the Saudis won't be satisfied until both holy cities
look exactly like Houston, Texas. This is not surprising, since they
seem to worship American petrodollars at least as much as God.

The Israelis are always whispering threats about nuking Mecca if the
Muslims get out of hand. But the way things are going, the Saudis may
beat them to it. By the time the Israelis get there with their bombs,
there won't be anything left to destroy.

The Saudis have already destroyed several holy sites. As an insult
to Islam, that ranks right up there with idiotic films, obnoxious Danish
cartoons, and sick Salman Rushdie fantasies.

Maybe it's time for riots in Riyadh.

Maybe the radical “al-Qaeda” mercenaries the Saudis are paying to
wreak havoc in Syria should go back to Saudi Arabia and overthrow that
evil regime, before its ongoing collaboration with Zionists, banksters
and imperialists, its support for the nuttiest and most obscurantist
interpretations of Islam, and its ongoing demolition of the Islamic
heritage, do any more damage to the religion it claims to be
protecting.
